Water May Have Formed in the Universe 100 Million Years After Big Bang
- Thursday March 13, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new study suggests water formed in the universe just 100–200 million years after the Big Bang, much earlier than previously estimated. Researchers examined ancient supernovas to understand how oxygen combined with hydrogen to create water. If confirmed, these findings could change perspectives on when the conditions for life first emerged. The ...
